My love for you

Do I love you like the sun loves flowers, or like the swans that synchronize swimming? Do I love you like parrots love showers for their chattering preening and primming? Is my love exciting and dramatic; does it stir up your heart, making you sing: unexpected, surprising, ecstatic, shining with sparkles of gold dusted bling? Perhaps it is words that whisper your name, or tapestry patterns woven with threads. It might be the spaces - perhaps the frame: imaginations in each of our heads. I keep loving you in my clumsy way, sharing a hug at the end of each day.
